The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 153
Darvi found Myles when he was leaving with his teammates using a man-pulling cart. He didn’t confront Myles but just stealthily followed him from a distance.“What happened to his teammates? They are all in terrible condition. Should I call a doctor and tell him to come and treat them?” After some thinking, Darvi shook his head. “Nah, my mission isn’t to care about his team. Let’s not get ahead of myself and focus on the mission at hand. But I must say his team looks weak. If I was in his place, I’d just kick them out of the team, or get rid of them for good as they’d be nothing but hindrance. So, I’m not sure why he keeps such weak souls around him.”Myles stopped the cart at a famous doctor’s house in the ward. She was a woke-ostrich who asked how Justin and others got their injuries. Myles told her they suffered injuries in a dungeon. The doctor asked for proof. Myles took out a random star crystal from his spatial ring. The doctor needed no more proof. She used her water ability t

In the middle of the night, at the Tail Cave.Porcius managed to slip out without anyone noticing, but then he got caught by Ruff who just happened to be passing by.Ruff, the woke-giraffe executioner, took a second to remember Porcius. “Y-You’re Porcius, aren’t you?”“I don’t know who you’re talking about,” Porcius acted innocent. (Dammit1 Why’s this giraffe roaming in the middle of the night? Was he making rounds? I came out at the wrong time!)“You were locked up in the dungeon as the Plague Pig,” Ruff drew his long sword out, “so how are you able to come out? You look like you were healed of all the diseases, too. Care to explain what exactly happened?”“You bastards used me as a guinea pig for your biological experiments!” Porcius howled. “I’m never going to forget what you all have done to me!” he swiftly sucked in a large amount of air and blew a giant air bubble through his mouth.“You think I can’t break a bubble?” Ruff thrust his sword and pierced the bubble, but then it exp

Before dawn.At Ria’s house, Myles and others had a long, fun chat with Hipster and Foxie, one of the two citizens that helped them after they entered the wolf city.“You should keep your Mage Score higher than six, or it wouldn’t do any good for you,” Hipster advised. “I’ve never let my score fall lower than seven in the past five years. I can get it higher than eight, either because of the business I’m in. Brawls are common in these inns and bars, so that’s that. But it’s different for adventurers like you guys. You can reach scores above nine if you achieve good results in the dungeons.”“I’ve managed to keep my score above six,” Foxie also voiced her mind. “That’s enough for the small-time job I do.”Ria smiled and put the house keys and documents in Foxie’s hands, startling her.“What are you doing?” Foxie was confused. “Why did you give me these?”“We probably won’t come back to this house, so it’s yours from now on,” Ria calmly stated.“R-Really?” Foxie’s lips curved into a big
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 156
Just as Myles had predicted, the authorities investigated everybody Myles and his group had come into contact with.There were no surveillance cameras around in these wards that were far from the center of the city, so Hipster and Foxie could say whatever they wanted and get away with it so long as they weren’t proven to be lying.Hipster and Foxie had enough people backing them to convince the authorities that they didn’t support Myles and his group for nefarious reasons.Penny was also approached, but she didn’t even answer them. She just showed them her middle finger. Given her messy history, they didn’t poke her too much.Rockell and his family was also interrogated, and the officers tried to intimidate and trick Rockell into confessing something he didn’t do, but because he knew the law: innocent until proven guilty, he was able to get out of any charges that were put on hi as he wasn’t found guilty.After Ruff’s death, Bryant from the Red Blade squad took over the executioner’s
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 157
The fight between Asger and Darvi shook the fiftieth floor and scared all the beings on that floor.They had to put their battle on hold for the time being because both of them had better things to do. Asger wanted to return to his lord as Myles had gone to the lower floors. Darvi also wanted to keep following Myles and his group.“The next time we meet, your head will fly,” Asger said and entered through a dark portal.“The ability to cover large distances instantly…” Darvi envied Asger’s ability. “Will I be able to obtain it if I kill him and obtain his seven-star crystal?” he wondered. “At any rate, if everything goes according to plan, I’ll be facing him soon enough.”He was about to head into the 51st floor, but he stopped at the entrance and looked back. A snake came slithering up to him and spit out a round ball. He held the ball at both ends of the diameter and twisted in opposite directions, which opened the ball and revealed a small paper scroll inside. He read the contents
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 158
The 51st floor had a volcanic setting with hot magma pools everywhere. It wasn’t quite suitable for fighting because of the uneven grounds. Moreover, any sort of disturbance to the ground would make lava pour out of the pools. Many people and monsters had died this way when they recklessly fought on this floor.And Myles wanted his teammates to spar with the manglers in such a setting. The challenge was not an easy one. The risk was too high.Nevertheless, Justin and others introduced themselves first.Then the Manglers impolitely introduced themselves one by one.“I’m Soro Gills,” the young blonde guy said with a smile, “I’m the youngest in the group, and I specialize in cutting the flesh and veins and draining the blood of the opponents.”“H-He’s a psychopath,” Ria muttered under her breath. “I can just feel it in his eyes. He likes cutting people.”Myles heard Ria’s words even though others didn’t, and he also believed the same. Even though Soro was smiling, that smile didn’t reach
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 159
Soro’s ‘Bleeding Lotus Blitz’ was by no means a simple attack. It could destroy an entire house into nothing but rubble. And Soro didn’t really hold himself back when he launched his attack. Even if he were to kill Ria, he had nothing to lose as Myles had given the permission for him to fight with the intent to kill.Hundreds of dark petals flew at Ria’s body. Her instincts screamed in her head, and her body reacted at lightning speed, and she covered herself with her wings.The petals struck her wings and bounced off in different directions. Some struck the ground, and some fell in the lava pool that was more than 100 ft away.Though the petals couldn’t cut through Ria’s feathers, the sheer power behind them sent Ria flying back. She was heading straight for the volcanic pool. She wanted to fly, but her wings were still trembling after taking the attack, and so she couldn’t employ her wings.“She’s going to fall!” Biskie worriedly said.“Why isn’t she flying?” Casey yelled in confusi
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 160
In that fraction of a second, as Soro came thrusting his dark-lotus leaking sword at her, a lot of regret filled Ria’s heart.Just a second ago, she thought she was in a safe position. She thought the lava wouldn’t affect her because she had the divine shield, but she should have known better. Even when someone like Soro who was much stronger than her had moved away from the lava pool, she thought she could stand in the lava. And she did. However, a simple burst of poisonous lava vapors disoriented her and made her knees go weak.All she could do was watch as Soro came at her heart. She couldn’t even move her wings this time. It was definitely over. She was going to die, she thought.But then a faint voice whispered in her mind: Don’t give up.Ria didn’t know how, but her arms moved fast and cross-blocked just in time. Soro’s sword struck her arms. Two powerful forces clashed. Hundreds of dark petals on one side, and an ethereal wall of energy on the other side.Both of them got repel

CHAPTER 328
Aero’s attack was deadly enough to easily kill a group of individuals without them even realizing what happened.The table where Myles and others were sitting was utterly destroyed.However, nobody was harmed because Myles had warped them a few meters away at the last moment. The only being he didn’t warp was Dusty.Dusty took the attack head on and was injured just a little. “This is…” he didn’t take more than a second to understand who it was. “Don’t say anything and just run away!” he shouted in ant language.“What nonsense are you talking about!” Aero attacked him with his spear-like limbs. “Her Majesty trusted you and sent you on a mission, but here you are, eating sugary things!”“You idiot! I didn't have any other choice!” Dusty defended himself. “I was forced to work for these humans!”“Shame on you! How can you work for humans?” Aero grew all the more aggressive. “You surely deserve to die!”“Who is that bastard?” Sercy asked angrily because part of the cafe was destroyed by

CHAPTER 327
General Aero of the Battle Ants leaped toward the two old timers and used his jelly-like body to set himself on fire, causing a nasty explosion that covered almost a hundred feet in every direction.It was so hot the ground cracked and the metal melted.Aero used this opportunity to fly away fast. Some automated machine guns recognized this intruder and shot at it, but Aero was able to easily slip past the bullets and flew away into the distance, covering a mile per second.Wise Servant and Sweet Beggar stepped out of the explosion, and Wise Servant sucked in the explosion and contained it in her single hand and squashed it into nothing. The compressed flames no longer existed as a candle light would turn off.“Are you going to go after that thing, or do you want me to go instead?” she asked him.“You’re the wiser one,” Sweet Beggar picked his teeth. “So you should go, since you decided to let that little ant go.”“I thought he might lead us to the one that escaped last time,” she rep

CHAPTER 326
Outside the forever S-rank dungeon where the Battle Ants were present, Wise Servant and Sweet Beggar stopped playing chess and started drinking a strong tea made out of boiling many potent green herbs.And both of them felt energized and relaxed right now as they sat laid back in their chairs.Wise Servant lost in chess once again. She had been trying to win just one game of chess against him for so long. She grew experienced enough to be easily called a grandmaster of chess, but still, she was not able to win against Sweet Beggar just one more time. All she wanted was for him to forgive her and say ‘I love you’ just once more.Both of them had long crossed 100 years of age. So, they weren’t thinking of sex or anything like that. They were purely thinking about each other’s souls.Wise Servant had already beaten him 999,999 times, but she really wanted to win another game; however, Sweet Beggar didn’t make it any easier for her. He remained ruthless all the time so that she couldn’t e

CHAPTER 325
In the dungeon swarming with ants of all kinds numbered in trillions, with more of them joining the ranks as seconds passed by, this dungeon was becoming more and more of a threat to the very existence of not just the Venture city but the very existence of humanity.The queen of all ants, Queen Wiggles, was currently crunching on wafers and looked to be in bliss.“Mm… these are the best things I’ve eaten in a while,” Wiggles looked at the captain ant that brought her a single packet of wafers. “What are these things called?”“Wafter, Your Majesty,” the captain ant kept his head and antennae lowered.“Water… it’s crispy, sweet, and easily melts in your mouth,” Wiggles was drooling. “I think I can eat a mountain of these. Why did you bring only one of these?”“The guy that entered the dungeon had only one of these in his bag,” the captain ant replied.“Oh, I thought you managed to leave the dungeon and then come back inside,” Wiggles said. “But some fool entered the dungeon, huh. Did you

CHAPTER 324
Sercy found an A-rank healer, but he asked for a lot of gold in order to heal Judas and Glint because it wouldn’t be an easy task.“Instead of money, I’ll give you the spoils of an A-rank dungeon we’ll clear,” Sercy told him.“That’s even better,” the healer happily agreed to it.After forming a contract, he came to the Dawn guild to heal Judas and Glint. However, when he approached Judas, Judas attacked him by grabbing his throat and lifting him up.“Who do you think you are…” Judas coldly said. “Did I give you the permission to heal me?”“Judas!” Sercy unleashed a flaming punch and struck his face, sending him flying into the wall right next to him. His head went halfway through the wall. “How drunk are you to attack a guest who came to help you!”Judas pulled his head out of the wall and spat a few pieces of bricks out. “I’m not drunk, Sercy. And I don’t want to get healed because I’m perfectly fine.”“No, you’re not fine. You are mentally disturbed,” Sercy blurted.“Hmph, you thi

CHAPTER 323
In Basil District.Sercy and Ria were heading toward a certain address.“Why did we have to travel so far?” Ria expressed discomfort without hesitation. “Couldn’t you find any healer near our district?”“I could, but I doubt they can fully heal Judas and Master Glint,” Sercy replied. “Judas has been drinking a lot. I’m sure his liver and other organs are not healthy. We need a proper health potion that can improve his health significantly. And Master Glint also needs to drink a health potion because he’s not eating properly.”“His daughter died long ago, so why is he still depressed?” Ria asked.Sercy glanced at her with a bit of a surprised look. “You lack emotional depth. Were you not raised by your parents?”Ria frowned. “Do I have to be raised by my parents to know a father’s love?”“...Not really,” Sercy said. “Some lives can be explained by pen, but some… only by pain. By emotion. If we haven’t experienced the same emotions ourselves, it’ll be hard for us to put ourselves in oth

CHAPTER 322
The glass cube was torn open like it was jelly, which genuinely dropped Sercy’s jaw for a second.Dusty was also not expecting that at all, but he grinned as he unsheathed his sword, ready to attack Myles. However, just when his eyes looked up and his gaze was set on Myles, he suddenly felt invisible pressure crushing him down from every direction.Myles was not even moving his eyelids, but Dusty couldn’t move. In fact, his body was trembling slightly. (What’s this feeling?) He looked very anxious. (This regal aura he’s giving… It’s as if I’m looking at Her Majesty. No, perhaps, dare I say… he’s even greater than Her Majesty Wiggles?)“Myles!” Sercy yelled. “How did you do that? I mean, how could you do that!” She quickly caught Dusty with her hand. “What if this little monster is more dangerous than we think?”“Then why are you holding it in your hand?” Ria asked.“B-Because he’s like a little doll,” Sercy said. “I feel like squeezing him to death.”“Eeek!” Dusty was terrified by her

CHAPTER 321
Myles and Ria came to the canteen while Biskie and Casey were so tired and beaten they had to take rest in the basement training grounds. Myles wasn’t the one who fought them, but they fought each other to the extreme just to test them and so wounded themselves a bit too much.“Our guild has good core fighters now,” Sercy told them while they were eating crunchy leaf burgers. “We only lack a good healer. If we can get someone who can not just heal the wounds but also boost our skills, it’d be wonderful.”“Someone who can do those things will be in high demand,” Ria opined. “Do we have enough money to recruit such a person?”“Money? Screw that,” Sercy snorted. “I want someone who will willingly work with us and share our burdens and not expect too much in return. I don’t want those types that go after money and fame as they cannot fit into anything. They are only going to abandon you when a better opportunity knocks on their door.” She then looked at Myles. “You explored some districts

CHAPTER 320
Dusty stealthily entered the guild building, expecting there to be tight security. However, all he found was an old man mumbling something in his sleep.“What’s this? They have the dragon king’s item, and they’re this relaxed?” Dusty frowned. “Are they that confident in their abilities, or are they just that stupid?”Nevertheless, he kept his guard on and traveled in the hall while using the objects as his cover.He saw Sercy who was loudly talking at her reception desk.“I’m telling you that I will buy those lands!” Sercy was shouting. “Sell me those infested lands, you bastards! If you do that, We’ll become ghost-venerers for you and clear three dungeons of your choice in the next year. How does that sound?”“Five dungeons for three years is okay for me.”“Three years is too long, and five dungeons is too much,” Sercy said. “Three dungeons and one year is final.”When a dungeon breaks, the nearby lands and environment get corrupted. This would cause the value of that land to drop, e
